The fast-i586-copyout option is not enabled in 2.2-GAMMA. I forget what
it was in ALPHA. It was either not enabled or buggy (it caused panics).
ALPHA is really old. It is also apparently missing the 1996/11/12 change
to print the time in milliseconds and the 1996/12/14 change to print the
time in microseconds.
